Pacific Palisades Fires: Correcting Misinformation about LADWP’s Water System

Update on Water Quality – Pacific Palisades & Adjacent Areas

New Interactive Map – Do Not Drink Notice 

Customers with questions about whether their address is affected by the Do Not Drink notice issued by LADWP should check this online interactive map. Customers can now enter their address and confirm if their property is included in the Do Not Drink Advisory. We recommend all customers who are returning to their residences and may have questions about their water quality to visit the interactive map and confirm if their property’s water service is impacted by the Do Not Drink Notice or call us at 1-800-DIAL-DWP and speak to a customer service representative. Our water quality staff continue to test drinking water in the affected area and we will advise customers of any changes at www.ladwpnews.com and www.ladwp.com/water quality.

Questions about Water Quality in the Brentwood Neighborhood

The Brentwood neighborhood is NOT included in the Do Not Drink Notice affected area. When water quality advisories are issued, our staff make every effort to quickly identify affected customers, and the boundaries are refined as we review additional information including detailed service maps and pressure zones in LADWP’s water system.

Brentwood is located in a different service zone of LADWP’s water distribution system than the service zone impacted by the Do Not Drink Notice. The Brentwood service zone maintained water pressure throughout the wildfire response, which prevented fire-related contaminants from entering the LADWP pipes serving the Brentwood community.

Since the wildfire began, LADWP has performed additional water sampling and testing in the Brentwood area. The water quality samples tested thru 1/17/25 continue to meet all drinking water standards. LADWP also has not detected any Benzene or any anomalies in volatile organic compounds or other contaminants associated with wildfires.

For the foreseeable future, LADWP will continue to sample water quality citywide, while intensifying the sampling and testing in the areas impacted by the Do Not Drink Advisory. We will provide timely updates to the public and residents of Council District 11 of any changes that would require an adjustment to water quality advisory boundaries.

Any customer with water quality concerns can contact our Water Quality Customer Care Team at 1-800-DIAL-DWP (1-800-342-5397). We offer free technical assistance and water quality testing to any customer in our service territory, landlord or tenant.
